The 2023 New Jersey General Assembly elections were held on November 7, 2023. New Jersey voters elected two Assembly members in all of the state's legislative districts for a two-year term to the New Jersey General Assembly.[1] This was the first election after redistricting following the 2020 United States census.

Democrats expanded their majority in the chamber by picking up both seats in the 3rd and 11th districts, and one each in the 8th and 30th.
